First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄ ⇄ H⁺ + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M 0 0
0.0356 - x x x
Ka1 =
![\frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BHC2O4%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BH2C2O4%5D%7D%20)
= x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6
The following are the classification of each element above:
Nickel - Transitional Metal
Potassium- Alkali Metal
Cadmium- Transitional Metal
Calcium- Alkaline Earth Metal
Barium- Alkaline Earth Metal
I attached a color-coded, labelled period table that will help to see the derivative of my responses.
In order to balance this, you have to count each
element where the elements in the reactants side and the product side should
have equal number of molecules. The balanced reaction is as follows:
2HCl + Ca(OH)2 = CaCl2 + 2H2O

Explanation:
The third law of thermodynamics states that "the entropy of a perfect crystal of a pure substance approaches zero as the temperature approaches zero" (Wikipedia).
One example of the third law of thermodynamics has to do with steam. Steam is gaseous water. Since it is a gas, its molecules are free to move around therefore its entropy is high. When the temperature of the steam is decreased below 100 degrees, the molecules of steam loose energy and turn into liquid water and do not move as freely as they did in the gaseous state. If the temperature is further decreased to yield ice at zero degrees, the molecules of water are "frozen" in their positions and the entropy of the system decreases to zero.
Also, the ions in ionic crystal solids move around when the substance is in solution or in molten state hence the substance conducts electricity. When the ionic substance is in solid state, the ions do not move about and the entropy of the solid system tends towards zero.
Answer:
on the PH scale anything with a ph of 1-7 is acidic, anything 7-14 is basic, in this case the solution mentioned in the question is basic.
